The team most people panned as the weakest of the seeded squads and the team most people panned as one of the worst teams in the tournament have mostly lived down to expectations so far. Switzerland's came extremely late against Ecuador and they were pounded by France. Honduras was beaten even worse by France before turning in a respectable performance against Ecuador.
One of these teams will need to do much better if they are to move on.
Honduras’ hopes are faint, to say the least. They’d likely need to win by multiple goals and then hope France pummels Ecuador. But even if that seems unrealistic, they’ll at least want to salvage some pride as they are the only CONCACAF team to have lost a match so far. Their hopes will be boosted by the return of Wilson Palacios, who missed Honduras’ last game on a red-card suspension.
Switzerland currently trails Ecuador by two goals in the first tiebreaker, which probably means they'll need a better result in order to move on. Catching France is almost surely out of the question, which means a meeting with Argentina in the Round of 16 might be the best they can hope for.
